Junior Ring Ceremony - Class of 2012

Congratulations to the Class of 2012!  This year's ring ceremony was great.  It was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended.  Thanks to Mr. Lutz, the class officers, and all the faculty, staff, parents and family members that took their time to come out and share this special event with our students!

Putting Out to Sail - Our Return from Spring Break!

I hope everyone had a magnificent Spring Break!  I, for sure, enjoyed every moment and soaked up as much family time as possible!  The highlight of my break was the "Behind the Seeds" tour at Epcot's The Land.  We spent about an hour and a half on a guided tour of Disney's agricultural work that mist of us see only from the boat tour.  Getting to see everything up close and to hear of how you can easily do a lot of what you see at home was absolutely fascinating.  If anyone is planning a trip to Disney in the near future I highly recommend it!  You can sign up right next to the desk by the entrance to Soarin'.  Here s a link to a post at Simply Hydroponics.com related to Epcot's tour.

This week we start back to what, I'm sure, will be whirlwind of activity.  Water polo practices, pending testing both in terms of FCAT and AP's are just around the corner and student registration continues.  Also, being as invitations for the coming school year went out before break, there will be many a phone call and email to return regarding next year's entries.  Just to get a jump on every one's calendar, Freshman Orientation has been scheduled for Saturday, May 7 from 9 AM to 12 noon.  There is always more to come!  Please check http://www.gomakos.com/ for more details of upcoming MAST events.
